STEP 1: find base area $ AB $

To find base area $ AB $ use formula:

$$ AB = r^2 \cdot \pi $$

After substituting $r = 26\, \text{cm}$ we have:

$$ AB = \left( 26\, \text{cm} \right)^{2} \cdot \pi $$ $$ AB = 676\, \text{cm}^2 \cdot \pi $$

STEP 2: find Curved Surface Area $ CSA $

To find Curved Surface Area $ CSA $ use formula:

$$ A = AB + CSA $$

After substituting $A = 5363.748\, \text{cm}$ and $AB = 676\pi\, \text{cm}^2$ we have:

$$ 5363.748\, \text{cm} = 676\pi\, \text{cm}^2 + CSA $$ $$ CSA = 5363.748\, \text{cm} - 676\pi\, \text{cm}^2 $$ $$ CSA = 3240.0314\, \text{cm} $$

STEP 3: find slant height $ l $

To find slant height $ l $ use formula:

$$ CSA = l \cdot r \cdot \pi$$

After substituting $CSA = 3240.0314\, \text{cm}$ and $r = 26\, \text{cm}$ we have:

$$ 3240.0314\, \text{cm} = 26\, \text{cm} \cdot l \cdot \pi $$$$ l = \dfrac{ 3240.0314\, \text{cm}}{ 26\, \text{cm} \, \pi } $$$$ l \approx 39.6666 $$
